Maybe everyone has implants that give them 'STDs' when they have sex before marriage.

Yeah, but STD's aren't necessarily only transmitted that way. Often they may be transmitted various other bodily fluids.

The fact that it is still a place where an external observer's perception distorts it which is perfectly consistent. If it were consistently inconsistent, wouldn't the influence of observers randomly vary? Or am I thinking about this the wrong way?

Also, what happens if that perception forces a void entity into the form of something tied to Creation?

Usually? They roll with it, I mean they're constantly changing normally, not like the form's anything odd for them. And naturally, the Void has no consistent rules, eternally existing in all possible states at once, but the simple act of a being observing it causes those myriad possibilities to collapse into a single one that fits the intent and perception they bring with them.
...Is that basically quantum mechanics with extra solipsism?

Kinda.

...You do realize that on Bay12 we may feel obligated to investigate that via vivisection and weaponize it somehow, right?

I was actually going to purpose it as a plot idea.

Are there any safeguards to prevent the perception from erasing the void of all life?

The fact that it resets itself as soon as they're gone and that person would pretty much immediately die because they'd perceive it as a place that they cannot exist, mostly.

Why don't the entities within it affect it with their own perceptions?

But logically if they went there they wouldn't think it doesn't exist as it can be perceived.

Plus they won't die from the logic error because their perception allows them to in the first place.

Because their perception is that everything is fluid, stacked on top of itself, eternally in flux.

It's only creation, with its narrow-minded viewpiont, that causes the collapse.

But what if someone who acknowledges the quantum physics to an excessive degree goes in then?

Wait, isn't void implied to be internally consistent seeing as Abraxas is able to seal it off or use it for his magic without any inconsistencies?

Emp, I think you may be thinking about this too hard. Suspend your disbelief for it and just enjoy it.

Only insofar as it reacts with Creation, which imposes structure and consistency upon it.

Why does Creation override void? Also, why does only Creation have a capital letter? Or why Void still doesn't have a less confusing name like Shys'm Caes for that matter :P
